16. Prayer of Confession
Lavon Baylor
We confess, O God, that we are not eager
to wrestle with you or to take responsibility
for sin in our lives. We see ourselves as
basically
decent, respectable people.
17. Yet we have bent your commandments
to our own conveniences.
We listen only to the word we want to
hear. We participate in the greed that is
destroying your good earth, and we
allow
evil to triumph through our
neglect.
18. Shake us into awareness that brings
change, and support us, we pray,
on the difficult path toward greater
faithfulness.
Amen.
19. Assurance of Forgiveness
Lavon Baylor
Our self-disclosing God proclaims:
“I will forgive your iniquity and
remember your sin no more. I will be
your God and you will be my people. I
will put my law within you; I will write it
on your hearts.” Give thanks for the
new life God offers, attuned to eternal
values.
20. Prayer of the Day
O Lord God, tireless guardian
of your people, you are always
ready to hear our cries. Teach
us to rely day and night on
your care. Inspire us to seek
your enduring justice for all
this suffering world, through
Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord.
Amen.
22. Strength will rise as we wait
upon the Lord
We will wait upon the lord
We will wait upon the lord
Strength will rise as we wait
upon the Lord
We will wait upon the lord
We will wait upon the lord
23. Our God, you reign forever
Our hope, our strong Deliverer
You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God
You do not faint
You won’t grow weary
24. Strength will rise as we wait
upon the Lord
We will wait upon the lord

The everlasting God

30. You fought but you were just too weak,
So you lost all the things you try to keep,
Now you're on your knees,
you're on your knees,
But wait, everything can change,
in a moments time,
you don't have to be afraid,
cause fear is just a lie, open up your eyes
31. And he'll break
open the stars to save
those who cry out his name,
the One the wind and waves obey,
He's strong enough to save you
32. Look now is not too late
lift up your head
let the rain fall on your face
you’re not far from grace,
you’re not too far from grace
33. And he'll break
open the stars to save
those who cry out his name,
The One the wind
and waves obey
is strong enough to save you
34. Break open the stars to save,
those who cry out his name
the One the wind and waves obey
is strong enough to save you
35. I know the weight of this world
can take you down like gravity
yeah, I know the current of
yourself can take you out,
out to sea but hold on, hold on
36. And he'll break
open the skies to save
those who cry out his name
the One the wind and waves obey
He's strong enough to save you
37. Break open the skies to save
those who cry out his name
the One the wind and waves obey
He's strong enough to save you
40. Your Grace Is Enough
(Matt Maher)
Great is Your faithfulness oh God
You wrestle with the sinner's
restless heart
You lead us by still waters
and to mercy
And nothing can keep us apart
41. So remember Your people
Remember Your children
Remember Your promise
Oh God

52. I believe in Jesus Christ,
God’s only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived
by the Holy Spirit,
born of the virgin Mary,
suffered under
Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died,
and was buried;
he descended to the dead.
52
53. On the third day
he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at
the right hand
of the Father,
and he will come to
judge the living and
the dead.
53
54. I believe in
the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection
of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen.

87. Confession & Forgiveness
ELW p. 94-96
(right column)
P: Blessed be the holy
Trinity, one God,
who forgives all our sin,
whose mercy endures
forever.
All: Amen
88. Almighty God, to whom all
hearts are open, all
desires known, and from
whom no secrets are hid:
cleanse the thoughts of
our hearts by the
inspiration of your Holy Spirit, that
we may perfectly love you and
worthily magnify your holy name,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
All: Amen
89. P: Gracious God,
All: have mercy on us.
We confess that we
have turned from you
and given ourselves
into the power of sin. We are
truly sorry and humbly repent. In
your compassion forgive us our
sins, known and unknown, things
that we have done and things we
90. have failed to do. Turn
us again to you and
uphold us by your
Spirit, so that we may
live and serve you in
newness of life
through Jesus Christ,
our Savior and Lord

loved us even when we
were dead in sin, and made

strengthen you with power through the
Holy Spirit, that Christ may live in your
hearts through faith.
All: Amen
93. Jesus calls us;
o'er the tumult
of our life's wild,
restless sea,
day by day his
clear voice sounding,
saying,
"Christian, follow me"
94. As of old
Saint Andrew heard it
by the Galilean lake,
turned from home
and toil and kindred,
leaving all for Jesus' sake.
95. Jesus calls us
from the worship
of the vain world's
golden store,
from each idol
that would keep us,
saying, "Christian,
love me more.
96. In our joys and
in our sorrows,
days of toil and
hours of ease,
still he calls,
in cares and pleasures,
"Christian, love me
more than these."
97. Jesus calls us!
By your mercy,
Savior, may us
hear your call,
give our hearts
to your obedience,
serve and
love you best of all.

121. Lift ev'ry voice and sing
till earth and heaven ring,
ring with the harmonies
of liberty.
Let our rejoicing rise
high as the list'ning skies;
let it resound loud as the
rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith
that the dark past has
taught us;
122. sing a song full of the hope
that the present has
brought us;
facing the rising sun
of our new day begun,
let us march on,
till victory is won.
123. Stony the road we trod,
bitter the chast'ning rod,
felt in the days when hope
unborn had died;
yet, with a steady beat,
have not our weary feet
come to the place for
which our parents sighed?
124. We have come over a way
that with tears has been
watered;
we have come, treading our
path through the blood
of the slaughtered,
out from the gloomy past,
till now we stand at last
where the white gleam of
our bright star is cast.
125. God of our weary years,
God of our silent tears,
thou who hast brought
us thus far on the way;
thou who hast by thy might
led us into the light;
keep us forever in the path,
we pray.
126. Lest our feet stray from
the places, our God,
where we met thee;
lest, our hearts drunk
with the wine of the world,
we forget thee;
shadowed beneath thy hand
may we forever stand,
true to our God,
true to our native land.
128. I believe in Jesus Christ,
God’s only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived
by the Holy Spirit,
born of the virgin Mary,
suffered under
Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died,
and was buried;
he descended to the dead.
128
129. On the third day
he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at
the right hand
of the Father,
and he will come to
judge the living and
the dead.
129
130. I believe in
the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection
of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen.

all are welcome in this place.
144. Let us build a house where prophets
speak, and words are strong and true,
where all God's children dare to seek
to dream God's reign anew.

here as one we claim the faith of
Jesus:
145. All are welcome, all are welcome,
all are welcome in this place.
146. Let us build a house where love is
found in water, wine and wheat:
a banquet hall on holy ground where
peace and justice meet.
Here the love of God through Jesus,
is revealed in time and space;
as we share in Christ the feast that
frees us
147. All are welcome, all are welcome,
all are welcome in this place.
148. Let us build a house where hands will
reach beyond the wood and stone
to heal and strengthen, serve and
teach, and live the Word they've known.
Here the outcast and the stranger
bear the image of God's face;
let us bring an end to fear and danger:
149. All are welcome, all are welcome,
all are welcome in this place.
150. Let us build a house where all are
named, their songs and visions heard
and loved and treasured, taught and
claimed as words within the Word.
Built of tears and cries and laughter,
prayers of faith and songs of grace,
let this house proclaim from floor to
rafter:
151. All are welcome, all are welcome,
all are welcome in this place.
154. Lead on, O King eternal!
The day of march has come;
henceforth in fields of conquest
your tents will be our home.
Through days of preparation
your grace has made us strong;
and now, O King eternal,
we lift our battle song.
155. Lead on, O King eternal,
till sin's fierce war shall cease,
and holiness shall whisper
the sweet amen of peace;
for not with swords loud clashing,
nor roll of stirring drums,
but deeds of love and mercy
the heav'nly kingdom comes.
156. Lead on, O King eternal:
we follow, not with fears,
for gladness breaks like morning
where'er your face appears.
Your cross is lifted o'er us;
we journey in its light;
the crown awaits the conquest;
lead on, O God of might! Amen
